C/MSgt Paul Smoot from the Fairbanks Squadron says, “What I enjoyed most at my NCSA was the monsoon that happened on our FTX. We had to build shel ters as quickly as possible in the pouring rain, lightning, and darkness. I was the only one that slept well in my squadron that night.” Right: C/2d Lt Tommy Clifton at SUPT NCSA at Columbus AFB, MS.
Wegemer from Lake Hood Squadron says, “My favorite part of my experience at Hawk Mountain was the FTX, where we got to hike up the mountain and really experience what a true SAR mission would be like. What I got out of Hawk was a once-in-alifetime experience where I got to truly understand what makes a motivated team. What I recommend to any cadets or Senior Members interested in attending Hawk Mountain is fully prepare yourself for the journey ahead; it will be challenging but one of the most rewarding experiences of your life.”
6 CAP AKWG Cadet Programs
This summer, cadets have scattered throughout the US, attending various National Cadet Special Activities (NCSAs) and staffing encampments! More than 20 Alaska Wing cadets have attended NCSAs this summer. Some have already returned! Read their sto ries below, and refer to the Kodiak Composite Squadron article to read about Kodiak cadets’ experience at the National Cadet Competition! Eight cadets from 5 different AKWG squadrons attended the 2022 Hawk Mountain Ranger School NCSA, and Col Brian “Irish” Porter returned to instruct the Aircrew Survival Class. Located in Kempton, Pennsylvania, Hawk Mountain Ranger School is the longest-running Search & Rescue School in the nation. For over 65 years, HMRS has provided high-quality wilderness SAR training to cadets and seniors throughout the country. C/2d Lt Reagan Benedicts from Birchwood Squadron says, “My favorite part of HMRS was the FTX, or Field Training Exercise. I enjoyed the intense physical training and the harsh conditions. We were able to use skills learned before the FTX in the classroom and practice them in a real-world situation. I learned many useful skills I hope to bring back to my squadron. I would highly recom mend this activity and plan on returning next C/TSgtyear.”Grania

In July, C/Lt Col Alan Padgett attended one of the Space Force Operations Academies, this one at Patrick SFB near Cocoa Beach, FL. The purpose of the academy is to expose cadets to ca reers that support Space Force opera tions and ideals of leadership and service through aerospace education and training. The SFOA at Patrick SFB in cluded behind-the-scenes tours, brief ings, and expert guest speakers on the various aspects of US missions and roles in space. Padgett’s favorite part of the SFOA NCSA was seeing the Artemis rocket that is scheduled to launch on August 29, 2022. He also enjoyed having ac cess to things a regular tourist would never see, and meeting people who are discovering new technologies and running experiments. He recommends cadets talk to people who have been to NCSAs. He encourages all cadets to expand their hori zons, explaining that something that may not at first seem interesting often becomes more interesting when you learn more about it. He goes on to say that, in Civil Air Patrol, you will have experiences at NCSAs you will not find anywhere else.

ation doing hands-on work, learning how aircraft are built and how major manufacturers and airlines handle normal and unexpected maintenance problems. This NCSA is designed for cadets interested in a career in the general aviation industry as pilots or as airframe and powerplant (A&P) mechanics. This NCSA also offers internships, some of which are exclusively for CAP cadets! In July, C/CMSgt Adrienne Martin (photo below) attended the Air craft Maintenance and Manufacturing NCSA in Independence, KS. She states, “What I enjoyed most from this activity was the camaraderie with the fellow cadets. I experienced what it was like to work on the airframes, and it brought a more human outlook. I would absolutely recommend attending as it is very important to fully un derstand the amount of time and skill that goes into the airplanes we fly.”
The objective of the Mississippi event is to simulate the US Air Force’s SUPT as closely as possible. Cadets could not receive the USAF pilot training, but they did get a close representation of what the academics, testing, and training environment are like for USAF SUPT students. Clifton’s favorite part of the NCSA was the challenge this NCSA presented. Clifton states, “I came into the week dreading the academics. But after the first day, I started to get excited about taking the next test and discovering not only my potential but the entire flight’s potential. As the week progressed, our flight formed a very tight-knit team. By the end of the second day, we had begun to learn each other’s strengths and weaknesses. That teamwork significantly boost ed our performance and our morale. Being a part of that team was my favorite part of this activity.” Clifton highly recommends this NCSA for other cadets interested in becoming pilots in the US Air Force. His ad

Airshow.
On Saturday and Sunday, July 30-31, Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson held its Arctic Thunder Open House and Air show after a long hiatus of 4 years. Alaska Wing participated with the static display of two aircraft - our new G1000equipped Cessna 182 and a Gippsland GA-8 Airvan. The aircraft were staged directly outside of the huge Hangar 2, while inside the hangar, we set up display tables to distribute CAP brochures and show motivational videos. We intended to operate the (former Medallion) mobile flight simulator that the Wing acquired from the FAA. The simu lator proved to be a very popular attraction for visitors earlier this summer at the Valdez Airshow and the Alaska Aviation Trade Show. Unfortunately, a vid eo card failed when the simulator was powered on early Saturday morning, so the simulator became a “static display” itself. Nevertheless, both the static dis plays and information booth saw many visitors, informing them about Alaska Wing and its CAP missions, and no doubt generating a few new recruits. Staffing the static displays and information booth required volunteers from all four Anchorage Bowl squadrons; so, here is a big THANKYOU to the following folks for their participation: Capt Terry Aldridge, C/Capt Mitchell Anderson, 2Lt Rena Anderson, C/SrA Talen Benjamin, LTC Mike Chiesa, C/2Lt Taran Harris-Barnes, 2Lt Clint Justus, 2Lt Elizabeth Justus, C/MSgt Ryan Justus, C/A1C Adeline Martin, C/CMSgt Adrienne Mar tin, C/CMsgt Andrew Martin, Cdt Avery Martin, C/SMSgt Adam McArthur, LTC Jim McCarthy, C/SrA Dawson Michele, SM Jack Minko, SM Larissa Myers-Mc Coin, SM Marie Nelson, C/Amn Thomas Owens, C/LTC Ryan Padgett, 2Lt Steve Prindle, C/TSgt Grania Wegemer, LTC John Western, C/LTC Annika Ziesmer.

In addition, ten Birchwood cadets recently received powered orientation flights thanks to Major John Nealon, Lt Dennis Eby, and Capt Bill Brown.
Senior Members Steve and Heather Parker stepped up to lead as Fitness Officers. They organized a fun meeting where we inspected backpacks, trained on hills at Loretta French Park with backpacks, and even played Ultimate Frisbee with packs on our backs to help us learn balancing techniques. This was all meant to prepare for a hike in Hatch er Pass, but the hike was unfortunately canceled due to high rainfall and flooding in the Matanuska Valley. The hope is to reschedule if a break in the rain hap pens Comingsoon.up on August 23rd, we start a “Great Start” meeting which will be open to our current waitlist. Birchwood looks forward to welcoming some new cadet members following the Great Start program.

While enjoying the food, cadets had a feedback session where they could voice their ideas on how to make the squadrons better. Great Starts, orienta tion flights, and the upcoming SAREX were also discussed. Earlier that day and the day pri or, cadets from several different squadrons in the Anchorage area helped staff the CAP recruitment booth at the Arctic Thunder air show, which took place at JBER. Parked between the F-22 Raptors and a C-17 Globemaster were two CAP aircraft, a Cessna 185 and a GA8 Airvan. Though the planes may have been some of the smallest aircraft there, they were definitely no less impressive.

Congratulations are due for C/SrA J Medlin’s recent promotion. Welcome, also, to new cadet Skyy Knutson, who has been faithfully attending weekly Squadronmeetings. cadets experimented with various flammable items, such as cotton balls in Vaseline, dryer lint in cardboard tubes, waxed paper, and small bags of Doritos, to see which, when lit with only a flint and steel, would burn the longest without kindling. Doritos definitely was the winner, with about a 13-minute burn! Fortunately, there was a rare day without wind and with low fire danger so this could be accomplished.

This month I’ll start with our safety culture and draw a direct contrast between how we do things now versus the “old safety culture” that many of us grew up with. It is this current culture that informs all of the other components of our SMS so understanding the “why” of what we do is foundational to understanding the “how.” Before I go further I want to point out that nothing about our culture and SMS is unique to CAP. The shift to the current way of doing things is something that has taken place in multiple industries and government agencies. While we may use CAP specific terminology and tools, the core tenets I’ll be cover ing are found in any modern SMS.
Now let’s take a look at the old culture of safety. Its key features were that it was reactive and used a system of punishment to keep people in line. The reactive nature led to occurrences, sometimes catastrophic in nature, happening even though many people in the organization knew there was a problem for some time before a big event happened. Those people weren’t empowered to do anything about it. Often there would be many smaller events or near-misses from which nothing was learned before one big catastrophic event occurred.

When the “big one” did happen the organization would react, often with
Safety CAP Safety Management System SeriesOur safety culture “Just”- based on or behaving according to what is morally right and fair. - Oxford Languages In CAP we have a modern safety man agement system (SMS). This SMS is supported by a safety culture that focuses on proactive risk management. For it to function correctly it requires an in formed and involved membership. To encourage that participation, over the next few months I’m going to be writing a series of articles on how our SMS in CAP works and what roles we all play. I want to remove the mystery of how we handle things in the safety department, as well as encourage individu al ownership of the SMS.
Theshock.second feature of the old system was rule by punishment. Individuals could expect that any occurrence, regardless of whether it was the result of unintentional human error, outside fac tors, or intentional deviation from policy, would be treated the same: targeted punishment. This led to a culture of hiding errors and occurrences at all cost to avoid drawing attention. Since events were routinely covered up no one was learning from what others had experienced and the organization didn’t have
-Capt DJ Burand
CAP AKWG 25 a chance to improve its systems. In contrast to the above the current culture features a proactive and just ap proach. Our goal is continuous improvement through learning, active reporting, and flexibility combined with competency to meet unexpected challenges head on and make sound decisions. We can be proactive by empowering individuals to raise safety issues and recommend improvements through reporting before an occurrence happens. This way we open up communication between those doing the activities or missions and those assigning them or creating policy. Additionally, by using deliberate risk management to mitigate potential hazards before activities, and by training our members to be flexible enough to react to new hazards in real time, we can create a safe environment for our people and improve our organization’s reliability when it comes to completing missions for our customers (think RCC, USAF, federal and local agencies, etc). We can’t totally remove all risk, however, and no one is perfect. When things do happen we use a review process to determine what happened and why, not who is to blame. A response is then crafted based on that review. That may mean an organization wide “heads up,” a change in policy, training at an individ ual or group level, tracking for trending purposes, or any number of other responses. While we must be accountable for following our policies, we approach occurrences in a just manner that seeks to learn from what happened and continuously improve ourselves and our Nonesystems.ofthis works without everyone working together though. The current safety culture is a team sport. It de pends on participation from each individual instead of top down mandates. If the individual players aren’t participating it just doesn’t work. So if you’re reading this, consider this my official ask to be an active player in our safety culture and SMS. Having laid the groundwork with our culture, next I’ll be covering the individual components of our safety system. This will include how to use the proactive suggestion/hazard reporting system, how to respond when an occurrence happens, post-occurrence reporting procedures, the review process, and Seemore.you all next month. Until then, stay safe and enjoy your summer.

C/MSgt Luke Hillyer made a Leadership Presentation to our Composite Squadron. The emphasis was to work together when leading. It brings the greatest results even though it takes longer to accomplish the goals. Seniors learned along with the cadets. Good conversation followed. Using the Robotic Stem Kit, cadets assembled the Turtle Robot and Sensor Robot. They used a new computer language to make the robots move. The experience was absolutely errific. Everyone learned new computer language and learned to have a lot of fun! Everybody wants to continue making the more intricate robots. The Kenai cadets worked on the GES 116 Course. They learned a lot. Poor weather prohibited Orientation flights. C/2dLt Wyatt Cole attended Ground School in Utah. He soloed. He said it was remarkable. CAP continues to help cadets accomplish their Alldreams.cadets are working hard, setting a good example in our community and supporting each other in practicing the Core Values. Cadets drew a Coat of Arms which included their life goals and experiences as they relate to the Core Values. Their Coat of Arms are displayed in our Cadet building. Cadets continue to do for others.
